Previewing Brighton vs Man City in the Premier League, with TV & live stream details, team news, predicted lineups & score prediction.

Brighton and Manchester City will both be in celebratory moods when they play their Premier League game in hand on Wednesday.

There was a lot more at stake when this fixture was first scheduled in April but, with Brighton now qualifying for Europe and City getting their hands on another league title, there will be plenty of positivity ringing around the AMEX Stadium.

There is nothing but pride left for City to play for, but Brighton, who need one point to confirm a Europa League spot that is already effectively secured thanks to a +16 goal difference over Aston Villa, are still in with a chance of overtaking Liverpool in fifth.

Brighton team news

There are plenty of injury concerns for Brighton, who remain without Tariq Lamptey, Solly March, Adam Lallana, Jeremy Sarmiento, Adam Webster and Jakub Moder.

Goalkeeper Robert Sanchez, who has been demoted to backup, remains away from the squad after requesting to be left out.

Brighton predicted lineup vs Manchester City

(4-2-3-1): Steele; Gross, Dunk, Colwill, Estupinan; Caicedo, Gilmour; Enciso, Mac Allister, Mitoma; Ferguson

Manchester City team news

Pep Guardiola made plenty of changes for the victory over Chelsea as his focus is now firmly on the Champions League and FA Cup finals. He named perhaps the strongest bench in Premier League history on that occasion but those heavy hitters may come back in here.

The only real injury concern is defender Nathan Ake. The Dutchman is thought to be close to his return anyway but, given his importance to the team this season, Guardiola will definitely not be rushing him back.

Manchester City predicted lineup vs Brighton

(3-2-4-1): Ederson; Walker, Dias, Laporte; Stones, Phillips; Silva, Gundogan, Alvarez, Grealish; Haaland

Brighton vs Manchester City score prediction

At this point in the season, it's tough to know what we're going to get here. Brighton should come out at 100% in pursuit of the slim dream of beating Liverpool to fifth place in the final Premier League table, but this game doesn't mean a whole lot to City.

Guardiola is happy to chop and change his squad to protect his stars for the upcoming finals. Even if the likes of Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland start, they probably won't play the full 90, which might just play into Brighton's hands.

Roberto De Zerbi has a sensational record against the top sides in England and that, coupled with City's willingness to take their foot off the pedal, could see these two sides share the spoils.
